Accessibility

The Durham Windows and Doors directory aims to meet the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2, Level AA, consistent with the Accessibility for Ontarians with Disabilities Act (AODA) requirements for web content.

What we do

  • Full keyboard navigation with a visible focus indicator and a skip-to-content link.
  • Labelled form fields, with errors announced to assistive technology.
  • Text contrast of at least 4.5:1 for body text.
  • Touch targets of at least 44 pixels on mobile.
  • Motion that respects the “reduce motion” system setting.
  • Meaningful alternative text for informative images; decorative images marked as such.
  • Filters, accordions, menus and the comparison tray are operable by keyboard and expose their state to screen readers.

Known limitations

The directory map view is a schematic of municipality coverage; every piece of information it shows is also available in the list view and on location pages.
